There is no more evident sign that anyone is a saint and of the number of the elect, than to see him leading a good life and at the same time a prey to desolation, suffering, and trials. - Saint Aloysius Gonzaga

Or if you have safari you just drag it into iPhoto and then attach it to a post or right click the image to get all the info you need. I use photobucket for larger pictures. You can also create slideshows on photobucket.

"O Cross of Christ, all-holy, thrice-blessed, and life-giving, instrument of the mystical rites of Zion, the holy Altar for the service of our Great Archpriest, the blessing - the weapon - the strength of priests, our pride, our consolation, the light in our hearts, our mind, and our steps"Met. Meletios of Nikopolis & Preveza, from his ordination.

Everything is ok, except the slash in the [ /img ] is in the wrong direction (always / and not \). Try it now, only without any spaces between the brackets.

I think there is a problem when the forum tries to render that image in the tags. It messes up this post each time I try it.

So, now that you know how to embed the photo in your post, another useful tip: you can scale the image down to a smaller size (at least in appearance) by adding either "height" or "width" to the code. For example, with your above icon:

"O Cross of Christ, all-holy, thrice-blessed, and life-giving, instrument of the mystical rites of Zion, the holy Altar for the service of our Great Archpriest, the blessing - the weapon - the strength of priests, our pride, our consolation, the light in our hearts, our mind, and our steps"Met.

Could anyone add to this thread and explain how to upload a picture from iPhone?

Thanks

Don't have an iPhone, but that shouldn't matter as uploading a file here should be the same no matter what internet device you are using.

Click Additional Options...

You will see, well additional options . . .

Next to Attach click the Chose File button.

Ostensibly, you should then be prompted to navigate through your iPhone's directory. If you know where the image is navigate to it and select it and hit Enter or whatever the iPhone uses. It's been a while since I broke my last iPhone, so I dunno. Then when you are finished with your post, click Post.

If this doesn't work, maybe an iPhone user can help. My iPhone was jail broken and unlocked and I could access the file directories like any computer. Not sure how the iPhone handles finding a specific natively.

Once you install it, just right-click any picture on the internet and you have to option to upload to imgur; all the code is done for you there in an instant. No need to register, log in, etc. as at photobucket.

Also you have the option to do selected screenshots, or edit the picture (e.g. resize, crop, etc.) on your first right-click. So fast and easy!

Using code from a partiicular website is fine too, though if the website goes offline your picture will be kaput.

Or if you have safari you just drag it into iPhoto and then attach it to a post or right click the image to get all the info you need. I use photobucket for larger pictures. You can also create slideshows on photobucket.

It looks like you want to paste a picture from your hard disk. It won't go that way. You have to upload it somewhere on the internet or make it as an attachment to your post (check "additional options").

Where are you trying to copy/load this from? If your computer then you'll have to use the "Additional Options" and use an attachment. If it's online then you will need an address on the web (www.somethinghere.com/coolpic.jpg) to use the image tags...

Conquer evil men by your gentle kindness, and make zealous men wonder at your goodness. Put the lover of legality to shame by your compassion. With the afflicted be afflicted in mind. Love all men, but keep distant from all men.—St. Isaac of Syria

I think this is what you were looking for. I put in an { instead of a [ only to show you what the text portion looks like. It should be an [.

You do realize there's a button along the top of the screen that does this for you, right? If you look up in the window where you are typing your post, you will see the colorful field - to pick the color of your text. Just above it is another toolbar of buttons, starting with an colorful circle. Next to that one, to the right, is a light blue button, looks like a small Polaroid photo.

If you click on that one, it will automatically enter the opening and closing brackets for you, and put your cursor right where it needs to be for you to simply right click and paste, or Ctrl+V...having previously copied the image URL onto your clipboard.

Good luck!

Your idea has been debunked 1000 times already.. Maybe 1001 will be the charm

Thanks a million ( Leon apparently got older waiting for me to figure this out)

Glad I could help!

It seems that in the past, when I used the "insert image" icon and then inserted the image, somehow the end [ disappeared. I just now used the icon, noticed the disappearing [, and then reinserted the [, and it worked. Good eye Liza, and thanks again.
